Frequently asked questions

How does accent removal work?

The tool decomposes characters with Unicode NFD normalization, then drops the combining diacritical marks, leaving the base letter. Special letters like ß become ss via a small extra map.

When is this useful?

For URL slugs, usernames, file names, database keys and legacy systems that only accept plain ASCII text.

Will it change non-Latin scripts?

Characters from scripts like Cyrillic, Greek or CJK have no ASCII base letter, so they are left untouched. Only Latin diacritics are converted.
